Justification By Faith
Written by Shawn Daniels   
Monday, 08 March 2010 10:54

We hear much in religion on the subject of faith and being justified by it. Paul tells us, “Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ.” (Rom. 5:1) The common approach to this verse by many religious leaders is to attach the words “only” at the end of this phrase. Is this what the apostle Paul meant? Can the words ‘by faith’ include the obedience to that faith, or are we justified the moment we believe? Let us take a look at this much debated question.

God's Standard for Unity: Part 8
Written by Shawn Daniels   
Monday, 08 March 2010 10:03

It has taken eight articles, but we are finally approaching the end of this short but important study. I say short, because books could be written, and many exist, on the subject of unity of Christian. My intentions for writing these articles is not to be exhaustive in any subject, but to set forward some Biblical ideas, and hopefully incite a spark in my readers to continue in their study of God's word. All Christian should be “Bible Students.” I say important, because the unity between Christians was so important that Jesus made the subject the theme of an intense prayer. (John 17) Jesus cared much about our unity, which should make it also important to us as professed followers of Jesus.

You Shall Be Holy, For I Am Holy

This first installment of the Sermons from the Letters of Peter series, looks at  what it means to be holy and reminds the Christian that the main purpose of our calling is for us to be holy.  This sermon also set forward the motivation for us to be holy.  It's not for wages that we strive for holiness, but because we are children of a Holy God.

Daily Light on the Daily Path

MARCH 9 MORNING

The living God giveth us richly all things to enjoy. -- I TIM. 6:17.

Beware that thou forget not the Lord thy God, in not keeping his com-mandments, and his judgments, and his statutes, which I command thee this day: lest when thou hast eaten and art full, and hast built goodly houses, and dwelt therein; ... then thine heart be lifted up, and thou forget the Lord thy God: ... for it is he that giveth thee power to get wealth.

Except the Lord build the house, they labour in vain that build it: except the Lord keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain. It is vain for you to rise up early, to sit up late, to eat the bread of sorrows: for so he giveth his beloved sleep. -- They got not the land in possession by their own sword, neither did their own arm save them: but thy right hand, and thine arm, and the light of thy countenance, because thou hadst a favour unto them -- There be many that say, Who will shew us any good? Lord, lift thou up the light of thy countenance upon us.

Deut. 8:11,12,14,18. Psa. 127:1,2. ?Psa. 44:3. ?Psa. 4:6.

MARCH 9 EVENING

They sang as it were a new song. -- REV. 14:3.

A new and living way, which he hath consecrated for us. -- Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost; which he shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Saviour. -- By grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God; not of works, lest any man should boast.

Not unto us, O Lord, not unto us, but unto thy name give glory. -- Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in own blood, and hath made us kings and priests unto God and Father; to him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen. -- Thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation. -- I beheld, and, lo, a great multitude, which no man could number, ... cried ... saying, Salvation to our God which sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb.

Heb. 10:20. Tit. 3:5,6. Eph. 2:8,9. Psa. 115:1. Rev. 1:5. Rev. 5:9. Rev. 7:9,10.

Some Information About Us

Who are we?

Simply put, we are a group of Christians, which were born by the power that God has given us through the gosepl (John 1:12; Romans 1:16, 17), that assemble together for the purpose of worship and service to God. We are non-denominational and wear only the name of Christ. We strive to do all things, word or deed, by the authority of Jesus Christ (Colossians 3:17).
